"House prices continued to rise across Australia in June, recent data shows.
Nationally, prices have risen about 38% in the past five years.
Higher housing prices are simply one contributor, albeit a very important one,
to the cost of living crisis that Australian households face. Energy prices are
another.
Those higher costs of living and the financial stress associated with them are
linked to a range of negative outcomes for households, including poor health
and wellbeing, greater housing insecurity, and some families having to go
without some essential items.
One consequence of house prices that has largely been ignored is their
relationship to marriage and divorce."
